LeBron James: Barkley calls Wiz 'dumb' for taunting LeBron

Charles Barkley says the Wizards have made a huge mistake by taunting LeBron James and the Cavaliers with trash talk."I think the Washington Wizards have got to be the dumbest team in the history of civilization," Barkley said. It started when DeShawn Stevenson called LeBron James "over-rated" when James missed a 3-point shot at the buzzer in a March loss at Washington. It continued when Gilbert Arenas wrote in his blog for nba.com, "I think everybody wants Cleveland in that first round. They've been a .500 team ever since they made that trade, and everybody wants a chance at that matchup." This is the third straight postseason the teams will meet in the first round, and it's going to be an entertaining series. The Cavs beat the Wizards in the last two playoff matchups.
